I'm pretty sure they are now, 18x7.5 pcd 115 which you could prob get away with or even use wobble nuts with no issues. But the offset is hard core.

They do look like they are 300c wheels:

The smx looks like the wheels are poking out slightly, so I'd say its about the same as a prelude.
I think the 300c offset is about 15-20 where a lude is around 35-40.

All depends how low you are and if you wanna roll the arches and use smaller tyres to stretch them. I guess it can be done?
